Death Cafe Iowa October 2025
A write up of Online Death Cafe Iowa CST
This month at our October Death Café we had 9 attendees! We had a lot of new faces, as well as many that we see every month! It was so fun learning about everyone, and discussing all things death. This month our conversation focused a lot on the Death with Dignity Act that is being voted in in Indiana. We talked about what it is, and how we feel about the topic of Medically Aided Death as a whole. We also discussed other things that can assist in making the dying process more comfortable, such as psychedelics, morphine, hypnosis, and meditation. Another big topic that got brought up was having a fear of death. Whether this was normal, and people’s methods to help lessen this fear. We talked about how media, and our overall exposure to death may be a factor in this fear, and how each of our different beliefs provide a certain level of comfort when we think about what may be next after we die. The conversation this month was so rich, and everyone participated and gave such great opinions and insights! We are so excited for what the conversation may bring in November, and hope to see some of those new faces back with us.
